Mark P Hatten · Post by **Mark P Hatten** » Fri Apr 05, 2013 8:35 am

After sitting unused since 1993 this 1970 Honda n600 comes alive. Brakes are rebuilt, gas tank cleaned, new clutch, rebuilt carburetor, new points, new oil, new tires, new plates, and more, more, more. You'd think I'd get tired of doing this stuff ! rev it up, let it rip !

Hey Mark, always enjoy your video's. You have a great shop and always have micro cars being restored, nice. So if I put a glass pack on my Coupe it will be a rocket ship? :)
You have the micro bug for sure, I think I have caught it also. I just bought a 1957 BMW Isetta, needs a lot of work, but it can be saved. I saw in your video that you work on these also. I need an engine for mine any ideas? Email me when you get a chance.

I had a flat glass pack on my honda in 72 (miss that sound, thanks mark.
lol) and it seemed to give me more power. The guys that did the parking lot racing I think had glass packs on. 72 they came out with a flat one that fit better under the lower cars but set right next to the floor board.

Apple cider vinegar works and is cheap, it will take several gallons. After you get it to where your happy then I would use Bill Hirsch motorcycle tank repair kit. I've had good luck with the stuff but don't rush the steps or the sealer will not stick properly. Total cost is about $75.
Bill Hirsch tank kit is $50 including shipping to your door

On my way to the store to get some apple cider vinegar!
How long did you keep the vinegar in the tank (several days / hours )?
Also, I have read that some put drywall screws (or ball bearings / pieces of chain) and slosh them around to break up pockets of rust. Did you try something like that?
I got the tank kit in the mail last week, so just need to pull the tank and start the process!
Thanks for any info.
Bob

Hi Bob, I used a 2 foot section of HD chain with large links. Be careful when shaking tank with chain links inside, you do not want to wrap chain around 1/4" pick up tube like I did. It takes a long time to get it unwrapped and unstuck.
